Funny Thanksgiving Commercial

2007-11-20T07:20:00.001-08:00

A friend of mine forwarded this commercial to me. Maybe you've seen it but I haven't because I don't live in American nor do I own a TV (studies show that it's good for your brain cells). Anyway, I don't have time for TV. I think I spent too much time watching it while I was growing up. Here goes:

So this Thanksgiving, whatever you do don't throw the turkey! Unless, well, you intend to kill a relative or two. ^_^

Funny morphing cats!

2007-08-27T13:14:00.000-07:00

I love kitties you love kitties. I love these cats! It's even better than that morphing Mona Lisa painting. Of course you gotta love the sound track too!

Would you trade a Monet for a beer?

2007-08-26T01:44:00.000-07:00

I was researching a bit on beer and cooking with it the other day. My thoughts started to wander about Stella Artois -- one of my favorite beers. Of course it's one of the most expensive ones too. I haven't had one in maybe five years :( They don't import it in India. But I checked out their commercials anyway. All the Stella commercials are in French and they are all artistic and funny commercials. What I love about them is that they're really nice short films. This is my favorite one.

Yipee Kay Yay! Die Hard Rock n' Roll!

2007-07-17T10:32:00.001-07:00

Well I'm really glad I went to see this funny action movie Die Hard 4.0 a couple of weekends ago -- I must say, there are still some action movies that makes sense and are highly entertaining. And I just love this song! I just saw that they added a new verse to the whole thing.
Really rawks!

Confederacy of the Dunces - Good?

2007-06-25T05:11:00.000-07:00

Confederacy of the Dunces is 35% evil, which means it's 65% good. Wow imagine that! Maybe we should wait a couple of months and measure it again. I found this neat little generator called the Gematriculator off Donald James Simpson /unbalanced/ blog (a blog worthy of checking out). If you're bored on Monday (or on any other day for that matter) and want to be as 'unbalanced' as he is I recommend checking out his blog. Just be warned, there's a lot of sh*t on the site (literally!).

Happy Monday!

Oh talk about Mondays, you have to take a look at Shaymus O'flatulence who had a snake in his toilet and read Terrence Culkin's NYC Subway story and the Vanessa's Blonde Monday madness both will give you great laughs if not grins throughout the day...

Witty, Funny Office 2007 Commercials

2007-06-21T09:54:00.000-07:00

I don't use Office that much, I use Open Office. Open Office is free and I love open source stuff -- like Mozilla Firefox. Microsoft had come up with a couple of really witty and humorous commercials. I found the collection on Revver as a collection. Here's one of my favorite ones from that collection.

Great right? There's more at Revver. Go check them out!

Confederacy of the Dunces - Under Construction

2007-06-18T05:48:00.000-07:00

Folks don't be alarmed by the crooked header banner or links that don't work. Confederacy of the Dunces is under construction. I'm changing the template all together and will be back with regular postings and more fun, laughter and humor. So stay tuned....

Until then!

Matrix Ping Pong

2007-06-02T13:23:00.000-07:00

Cool Matrix Ping Pong video, really funny, part bizarre, part creative, and part plain crazy -- just leave it up to the Japanese to do something like this. My thanks go out to Pete. He made it to the Dean's List yet again! YIPEE! It's really cool, if you're a bit confused in the beginning it's ok you'll get it in a couple of seconds. ^_^

Confederacy of the Dunces?

2007-05-22T08:49:00.000-07:00

I was looking for a decent picture for Confederacy of the Dunces (this blog) for a banner -- I'm also looking for a proper blogger template. I'm thinking of having K2 so I can have the same theme as my other blog Notes Above Ground. That'll have some what of a continuity in look and feel but the banner would change. What do you think of that idea?

Anyway I Googled "Confederacy of the Dunces" and this blog came up on the second page. ^_^ it's an occupational hazard to be obsessed with Google, stats and page rank. But it was kinda cool that I came up. I looked for images and I found stuff from Wikipedia and an interesting virtual tour of Confederacy of the Dunces.

And then there was this pic:

109th Congress

It's from Radar Online -- the counterpart to the magazine. I just love their stuff. Good thing we have the internet because I won't be able to get it in India. Oh another picture of Confederacy of the Dunces:
Good stuff right? Pictures are worth more than words indeed! I wonder what the Dunces would look like this election -- if you come across any pictures forward them to me will ya?

Look who's the Dumb Blonde now

2007-05-20T09:49:00.000-07:00

This one came in my email from my friend Bill. He often sends "dumb blonde" jokes and smart ones too. This one's a very clever blonde joke -- check it out!

The Casino

An attractive, well built blonde from Dublin arrived and bet twenty-thousand dollars ($20,000) on a single roll of the dice. She said, "I hope you don't mind, but I feel much luckier when I'm completely nude". With that, she stripped from the neck down, rolled the dice and yelled, "Come on, baby, Mama needs new clothes!"

As the dice came to a stop, she jumped up and down and squealed... "YES! YES! I WON, I WON!"
She hugged each of the dealers and then picked up her winnings and her clothes and quickly departed. The dealers stared at each other dumbfounded.

Finally, one of them asked, "What did she roll?"
The other answered, "I don't know - I thought you were watching."

MORAL OF THE STORY- - - -
Not all Irish are stupid and not all blondes are dumb, but all men are.

^_^ I guess she'll fit in Ocean's Thirteen quite nicely eh?

Captain on Deck!

2007-05-11T08:44:00.000-07:00

I found Jean-Luc Picard! I never thought the Captain would be writing a blog from the Enterprise. It makes a very very interesting read. The Captain is having adventures like he had never done before. I guess blogosphere's influence have a lot to do with it because they just had characters from SG1 on the ship!

It is really funny to read and is very entertaining. I never thought Picard had a great sense of humor. But I'm glad I found it and I have to thank Tamiki the Witty because I found Jean-Luc Picard while I was reading the comments. Yes, he was commenting on the blog. Can't wait till he comes around here. ^_^

Till then, make it so Number One!

Birth of the Confederacy

2007-05-04T06:27:00.000-07:00

The birth of the "Confederacy of the Dunces" came about when I was in The Reading Room going through a forum discussion on what's the funniest book you've ever read. And it dawned on me that I have saved funny emails and there's no real group called "Confederacy of the Dunces" on Stumbled Upon. I also checked if a blogspot url was available and it was so I took it and made a blog out of it.

The idea of the Confederacy is really simple -- it's a humor blog based upon the funny quirky humor of John Kennedy Toole -- the author of the novel 'Confederacy of the Dunces'. It's probably my favorite book in the humor or funny genre. The Reading Room forum was a catalyst for me because I had an idea of a humor blog -- those emails I get I can dump and share with people. So anything funny I get over the email or find over the internet will be here. ENJOY!

If you want to send in any funny stories or jokes you can email them to me:

When Aliens Breed...

2007-05-02T03:08:00.000-07:00

Many will recall that, on July 8, 1947, witnesses claimed an unidentified object, with five aliens aboard, crashed onto a sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico.
This is a well-known incident many say has long been covered up by the United States Air Force and the federal government.

However, what you may NOT know, is that in the month of March 1948, exactly nine months later, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Condoleezza Rice, and Dan Quayle were all born.

See what happens when aliens breed with sheep?

This information may clear up a lot of questions.
